4.1.6 Communication
When the Step-Servo Quick Tuner is connected to an TSM Integrated Motor
the drive model and sub-model will cause the communications to be set to
the proper type (RS-232 or RS-485). If Step-Servo Quick Tuner is unable to
connect to the TSM Integrated Motor, manually selecting the communications
type may help establish the connection.
Port
The correct COM port may need to be selected. When the software is loaded, it looks for the
first available COM port, but may not always find the one connected to the drive. After a specific
COM port has been selected this setting is saved when the Step-Servo Quick Tuner is closed. If
the saved COM port is available next time Quick Tuner is started it will be automatically selected
Select the port from the drop-down list. If the port exists and is not already in use, the software will
use it to communicate with the TSM.
Uses Check Sum
The TSM Integrated Motor supports using a check sum in the communication protocol. For more
reliable communications this option can be selected. Checksum is used automatically when the
TSM is being configured, tuned or operated in the target environment. This can prevent mis-
information being sent to or received back from the drive.
4.1.7 Servo On/Off
The
Enable
button energizes the motor and tells it to be ready to accept motion
commands. The
Disable
button cuts the current to the motor and it will not be
able to execute motion commands.
The Enable button must be used to re-enable motor operation after a fault
condition has occured. Before the enable can be used the alarm fault condition must be cleared.
See Alarm Reset below.
4.1.8 Alarms
Indicator
When a fault occurs the Alarm indicator will flash red, a warning will trigger a
flashing orange signal. Green indicates there is no alarm condition.
Alarm Reset
The
Alarm Reset
button will clear the alarm and return the signal to green if the alarm condition
can be cleared. In some cases an alarm condition can be persistent and other action may be
required to remedy the condition.
4.1.9 Upload & Download
The
Upload
button allows the complete set up and tuning parameters from an TSM to be copied
to Quick Tuner. Later these settings can be saved to a PC file (see “File Saving” above). It is very
important to perform an upload from a configured drive so that its configuration is not accidentally
over-written.
The
Download
button is used to copy settings from Quick Tuner to the drive. Each time the
download button is clicked, all configuration settings will be downloaded to the drive.
